San Gabriel

Set on an expansive corner in a beloved portion of North San Gabriel around the corner from Coolidge Elementary, this elegant traditional home is anything but ordinary. In fact, the thoughtful u-shaped design of this cottage, with its gorgeous breezeway, frames an absolute jewel of a backyard, flooding each room with natural light and creating a lifestyle highly conducive to seamless indoor-outdoor living. Welcomed by truly stunning, well-groomed landscaping, one enters the home through a rare wooden screen with baluster spindles directly into the breezeway, catching a glimpse of the lush and nurturing garden, while stepping into the beautiful living room, complete with crown molding, vintage crystal sconces, stately fireplace, and adjacent to the formal dining room with exquisite architectural detail. The bright, immaculate kitchen boasts custom cabinetry clearly demonstrating a brilliant use of space, including a breakfast nook, while maintaining the home’s original charm. Two very large bedrooms grace the north side of the home, each having oversized closets, and flanking a full hallway bathroom, which has been impeccably cared for, along with the entire home…an absolutely one-of-a-kind property that has been thoroughly enjoyed by the same family since the early 1940s!
